41The ALAC should work with the ICANN Board in seeking additional sources of funding for At-Large activities.ALAC; ICANN BoardTG5
  • Finance and Budget

IN PROGRESS - Pending Internal Process

ALAC/At-Large to request this recommendation be implemented under the new ICANN Meeting Strategy, esp. Meeting B (AC/SO focused meeting)

 


Actions: 

  • : 
    • Members in the At-Large New Meeting Strategy Working Group to keep the ATLAS II IT updated with the discussion about Meeting B
    • In Dublin, ALAC to discuss this recommendation with the GSE (Sally Costerton and the Regional VPs), the meeting team (Nick Tomasso), and Nora Abusitta (DRPD). 
    • ATLAS II IT to ask Regional VPs to provide brief summaries of activities currently taking place in their respective regions that involve the RALOs, as well as their further engagement plans with the ALSes. Regional VPs to report on this during ICANN 54 Dublin. The Regional VPs to also discuss the Civil Society Engagement Overview and Forward Plan with the ALAC and explain the collaboration opportunities (e.g. regional/local resources and Regional VPs' own budget may potentially provide fundings for outreach activities). 

    • ALAC to follow up with GSE to seek answer to this question – how possible is it for GSE to help the ALAC raise additional sources of funding?

Notes: 

  • FBSC engage with various parties that can help raise sponsorship in the future

    • At-Large New Meeting Strategy Working Group (LAC sub-group) has been discussing outreach strategy for Meeting B
      • The Group has raised issues re funding for outreach programs 
      • While the original idea was to contain all the activities within the ICANN meeting, the Working Group has convinced ICANN Staff to also include external outreach activities 
      • At-Large is encouraged to collaborate with ICANN staff on various ICANN initiated outreach programs including Next Gen
      • Check the details of this discussion via the transcript/recording of the Working Group meeting on https://community.icann.org/x/qYxYAw
    • There seems to be some eagerness from Regional VPs to work with the ALAC and RALOs on regional engagements activities (e.g. newsletters, webinars, LAC strategy, APRALO-APAC Hub); some At-Large members are deeply involved in those activities. 
  • :
    • FBSC has been looking into third party sponsorships, but there seems to be no real understanding whether At-Large should ask for such external funding 
    • External funding seems to be required for meetings/outreach activities outside the ICANN meeting
  •  (update from the GSE, slides)
    • Olivier Crepin-Leblond: We’re talking here about sponsorship, et cetera, for additional activities outside. So the question here is how possible is it for GSE to help the ALAC raise additional sources of funding?

    • This recommendation concerns with additional sources of fundings external to ICANN.
    • Some At-Large members work with RIRs and other organizations to support their activities
